Abstract:		 A desk-based assessment and visual inspection was undertaken of No. 4 Market Place, Bishop Auckland in July 2008 in advance of a proposed development, and upon advice of Durham County Council Archaeology Section. The study area comprised a 500m radius centred on the grid reference, and involved the search of Durham HER, Durham Record Office and Library and Bishop Auckland Library Local Studies Centre. The building itself, Listed Grade II, appears to have been constructed as a vicarage for St. Anne's Church opposite and dates to the mid 18th century. The site visit has found that interesting features survive within the site boundary. These include a post-medieval boundary wall and outbuildings, the latter is due to be demolished, and perhaps the boundary wall also. It may be necessary for an archaeological building recording to be undertaken, corresponding to an English Heritage Level 2 survey, prior to the demolition of these features, to further inform of their construction and date, and to assess whether these were part of the mid 18th century No. 4 Market Place build. Buried archaeological deposits relating to the medieval and post-medieval occupation of the site may survive within the proposed development area. As foundation trenches and services are due to be excavated within the site as part of the proposed development, it is further recommended that a scheme of trial trenching is undertaken, in the areas due to be affected, to test the potential for medieval deposits relating to the early history of Bishop Auckland, and also to record any post-medieval deposits in the area, which are likely to be destroyed by the groundworks.
